Hello,
Your symptoms seem to be related to external haemorrhoids. I recommend using anti haemorrhoids such as Preparation H for local treatment.
I also recommend soaking in warm water for local treatment. I suggest to drink liquids and continue using a laxative to avoid constipation.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
